At the moment nobody offers a machine for sale in Phoenix, Mesa or Scottsdale on EquipmentsFinder, because the US marketplace has only just opened. Shoppers can post a purchase request with the type and budget they have in mind, while dealers and owners can put a machine up for sale without paying while the launch runs.
The site introduces buyer and seller and then steps aside. You call the owner, look at the machine, settle the price and the pickup, and pay the seller. Neither side hands the website a commission.
Several kinds of buyer share this market. Earthwork firms preparing industrial pads in the West Valley and north Phoenix look for loaders and excavators. Residential site crews working the outskirts need skid steers and trucks. Paving and utility outfits in Mesa and Scottsdale add compactors and backhoes, and specialist contractors on large industrial buildings eye cranes and telehandlers.
Buying new means a factory warranty and a dealer to call. Buying used keeps capital free but raises the question of how the machine was treated. Arizona heat is rough on rubber, paint and cooling systems, and a unit that has worked in dusty fields needs close attention to its filters, bearings and radiators. If your job ends in a season, renting in Phoenix deserves a quote first.
A bill of sale with serial numbers, a title for anything that drives on the road, and written confirmation that no lien remains. Tax treatment depends on the item and the buyer, so confirm it with the seller and an accountant before money moves.
List what you want and the seller who has it can reply directly. Out-of-state options appear on Las Vegas and Denver pages, should you be willing to haul.
Write a purchase request. Sellers who join will see it and contact you with details.
No fee is charged to a buyer, and the site takes no commission.
Look for sun-cracked hoses, clogged radiators and dust in the air filters, then watch it work under load.
A title or bill of sale that matches the serial number, and confirmation of no liens.
Yes, when the haul makes sense. Ask each seller what delivery would cost.
Sellers can complete the list a machine form, and posting is free during the launch.
